- Add corn, 1/4 teaspoon salt, pepper, and lemon juice, stirring until combined. Transfer to a large bowl, and let cool for 15 minutes. Wipe pan, and set aside to cool. Spray pan with baking spray with flour.

Spread cheese mixture over the bottom of the dough; top with corn mixture. Folding excess dough, cover about 11/2-inches of filling, pleating the dough as necessary. In a small bowl, whisk together egg and 2 teaspoons water. Lightly brush edges of dough with egg mixture. Sprinkle edges of dough with remaining ¼ teaspoon salt. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Let cool for 15 minutes before serving.
